Ok. I might give that a try. I’ve done the sanding sealer and didn’t like that.
-
I am going to start making baits again. I see a lot of the guys who make a lot of baits have them rigged up where they can dip their baits to seal, primer, and top coat. I did something similar but what do you guys think is the best thing is to seal baits with before painting that you can dip. A lot of these guys are secretive on what they use. Thanks

Are Brian's Bees Or Jawjacker Baits Still Available
Juice780 replied to Andyco's topic in Hard Baits
I really like jawjackers lure. Rob builds some great baits and has helped me out on building baits. He even cuts some bodies out for me. You have to message him on Facebook to order. Brian makes some good baits too but one of my friends that runs a tackle store had some disputes with him. He still has website I think and also sells his baits on other websites. -
I changed what I am sealing my baits with and my white base coat. Well the garco that I have been using didn't like it and it caused my paint to crack underneath. I order a pint of kbs clear to try and it worked out great. I guess I will be switching to kbs. Where are you guys buying it from? I want to find the cheapest place to buy it from.

I currently use garco and it lasts way longer than when I used dick nite. I buy a quart at a time and I pour it into small mason jars. I normally dip 3 coats. Wait an hour in between coats. When I am finished I store the jars upside down so if any does start to cure it will be on the bottom. I can dip 150-200 lures with one quart of garco. I do have a question. I was reading some old threads and came across some people sampling some new dick nite formula. It was suppose to last a lot longer. Was this stuff ever put into production.

I'm looking for some paint that I can dip my lures for primer and for chartreuse then paint over with my air brush. I want to make my process faster by dipping the baits instead of using my air brush for primer and solid colors. I have tried some different paints but they don't coat well and run off the baits. I also use mcu for top coat so it I need something that will work with that. Thanks
-
My mold came in today. Here is a few I poured. I don't have hany plastic in yet so I just cut up some baits I don't use. It's nice to finally have some white ones for bed fishing.
-
Do I need an injector with that mold.
-
Anybody know of a mold that's similar to a Yamamoto flapping hog.
-
Update. I bought some stuff at Home Depot called killz primer. It water based and pretty thick stuff. I dipped a few baits then topcoated them. And worked out great. A lot easier to dip than spray 2 coats. Probably best when you are doing a lot of baits at a time.
-
That's weird because the super hide white is what I had a bad reaction to the topcoat.
-
I want some white primer paint that I can dip my lures in for a base coat before I paint. I use mcu for top coat so I need something that won't react bad it. I had a bad experience with a primer causing my topcoat to wrinkle. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
-
Thanks for the info. I see they also have water based polytranspar. I want to try something other than createx. Which one would you choose from between the wildlife colors or polytranspar?
-
I am wanting to try smith wildlife paint and I was wondering where is the best place to buy it online.
-
What Sherwin Williams top coating is it. I went to their website and they halve a ton of different ones to pick from.
-
I dOnt know if this video has been posted before but I ran across it the other day and thought it was pretty interesting. Sorry if it's a repost.
-
How does it compare to dick nite
-
Try this link instead.
-
I know this has probably been asked before but I can't find it. What kind of top coat is the guy in this video dipping his lures in.
-
I did find a website who said they don't charge extra for heavy balsa but I can't remember what I was.
-
I always get what they call heavy balsa. It easier to work with and more durable
-
For some reason ace doesn't carry d2t here. I think I'm gonna try the bob smith stuff
-
There is a hobby town USA here so I might go there and see what they have
-
What do most of you guys use to install ballast weight, hook hangers, and bills.
-
What kind do you use and can you get it in a large bottle instead of those tiny bottles that super glue comes in
